This research evaluates the effectiveness of socialization and law enforcement regarding underage electric bicycle riders, and provides recommendations for improvement. The study results show that current outreach programs are not yet effective in reaching the main audience, namely children and teenagers. This is caused by budget limitations, lack of support from stakeholders, and limited communication media. A lack of understanding among parents and young drivers as well as a lack of information at the school and community level exacerbates this problem. Law enforcement also remains weak and inconsistent, largely due to a lack of strict supervision and regulation, as well as a lack of understanding among law enforcement officials. In terms of regulations, Law no. 22 of 2009 does not yet specifically cover electric bicycles, which require updating to reflect the latest technology. The evaluation shows a mismatch between existing regulations and practice in the field. To improve this situation, it is recommended to increase outreach through educational programs in schools, partnerships with the media, drafting special regulations for electric bicycles, revising the Traffic Law, and increasing law enforcement with special training for law enforcement officers. It is hoped that these steps will create a safer and more orderly environment for electric bicycle users, as well as reduce the risk of accidents
